TEELING Small Batch, 46% ABV
TEELING Small Batch, 46% ABV
The first Whiskey to be distilled in Dublin in nearly 50 years, the Teeling Single Pot Still pays homage to a Dublin style made famous by the old, now closed, Dublin Whiskey Distilleries.
With layers of unique flavour influenced by unconventional cask maturation techniques, the Teeling Small Batch is made up of hand-selected casks of grain and malt whiskey that were initially fully aged in Ex-Bourbon barrels, then married together in Central American Rum casks for up to 12 months for a unique, dried fruit profile.
This is not how everyone makes Irish Whiskey – it’s the Teeling way. That’s the Spirit of Dublin.

Serving Suggestions
First things first, be comfortable, relaxed and free from distractions. Pour a healthy amount (15-25ml) into a nosing glass (e.g., glencairn) and let it sit for a while. We recommend a minute of resting in the glass for every year in the cask. Otherwise, let it settle down for 5-10 minutes at least.
Help yourself to a 'warm up dram' in the meantime - something simple to open up the palate. When ready, start nosing the spirit, followed by sipping it (noting how it arrives on your palate and its development), and finally the finish. Take your time to get to know the spirit, noting its expression, character, depth, complexity and flavours. These can all change with adding drops of water so play around to find different sides of the spirit and identity a personal sweet spot for yourself!
But always remember, the best way to drink it is the way you like it!
